To conserve bandwidth and reduce load time for pages, especially for our Members on dial-up, please do not "quote" pictures from a previous post in a thread. If you want to refer to a picture, just refer to the post #. Every time the thread is read and refreshed, pictures are re-loaded making the whole thread slower. While the Gallery allows larger pictures, pictures to be used in a thread/post should ideally be 640x480. Otherwise most viewers must scroll the page to the right to view the full picture.

Pictures are the largest bandwidth hog on a server....which is why sometimes the server is busy because it's overloaded with simultaneous high-bandwidth download requests. Please keep it simple.

Also, when quoting text, please quote only the relevant part, not the entire post. This will make it easier for everyone to read.
